PVCu Decking

PVCu decking is an increasingly fashionable choice for creating outdoor seating areas in gardens. Due to the beauty of the wood effect, they can be very fashionable spaces which you can use year round with the addition of external heating and illumination. PVCu decking is typically fitted in locations in front of patio or French doors where they can create a smooth transition between inside and outside spaces. PVCu decking can come in virtually any size or shape to match any area. Curved designs or large areas linked by pathways can create an impressive effect. PVCu decking is fairly quick to install and causes little disruption, particularly in comparison to alternate options like patio or paving. It can even be installed over the top of an existing patio. It is necessary however to be sure that your PVCu decking is structurally sound and able to take the load of any furniture or plants that you want to use on the decking. There is a variety of types of wood effect that can be used in PVCu decking. Usually decking is constructed from plastic. As plastic decking will require maintenance, which generally consists of yearly cleaning and staining for weather proofing, composite woods have become more popular for use in PVCu decking as they are stronger and require significantly less maintenance.
